Reinstallation of the Spindle Whorl

 

The Spindle Whorl was reinstalled in the Law Library on October 27th.  The piece is now on a specially built riser,  designed to provide a  protection from inadvertent bumping and touching.   Please do come by and view the piece.  Information about the artist and this piece can be found in the book Susan Point : Spindle Whorl  a copy of which is available for perusal in the nearby  seating area.

Among the many pieces of  Legacy Art installed at the Law Library is Susan Point’s Good Luck (Double Salmon Spindle Whorl), 1998 . The piece was on loan to the Vancouver Art Gallery from February until June, for the show Spindle Whorl, which was devoted to Point’s prints and sculptures. The exhibit catalog is available in the Library. The piece was returned on June 8th, coincidentally during the  Faculty’s  hosting of the 2017 joint conference of the Canadian Association of Law Teachers (CALT) and the Association for Canadian Clinical Legal Education (ACCLE).  Good Luck was reinstalled to a prominent,  welcoming location in the Law Library.
